We Have a New Mardi Gras King!
On Fat Tuesday, March 5, 2019, a new Northside ruler has been exalted. Roger Humphries, a Pittsburgh legend and jazz icon, was crowned as the new Northside Mardi Gras King at the Official Fat Tuesday party at the Allegheny Elks Lodge #339. Randy Gilson, the lovable founder of Randyland and King of 2017, passed along the crown in 2018 Queen Etta Cox's absence.
Mr. Humphries has played the drums since age 4 and has an endless resume. He has shared the stage with the likes of Ray Charles, Dizzy Gillespie, The Isley Brothers and many more!
